Battle.net has word that the new version 4.0.6 is now live in World of Warcraft, Blizzard's MMORPG. They offer an overview of the patch, these patch notes offer complete details, and this post outlines known issues. Not content to stop at that this post outlines a number of hotfixes that have already been applied since the release of the patch. Thanks Ant.

I'm sticking to my guns as a Feral DPS but I've also been investing my time in a new Shadow Priest.

Cataclysm definitely has a different atmosphere about it though which I can't quite put my finger on and whether it's good or bad. Maybe it's the lack of raiding up until this point compared to previous expansions which is giving me much more free time to pick flowers in Uldum.

Either way, I have ~60 days left or so of game time which I intend to use, for better or for worse.

The real issue is how they are silently taking away certain achievements as they now set new requirements. Players with 'the Exalted' were stripped of the title with no word or mention of the new requirement of 50 until after the fact whereas 'Loremaster' and 'the Explorer' were grandfathered in without issue.

Paper thin troll but it's surprising how many people I've been hearing that from recently.

Not a troll. It's not-so-subtle sarcasm about how god-awful the patch is. All my IRL friends who play WoW have canceled because of this patch too.

What so bad in this patch? I recently re-subbed after being away for a couple of years and I am really enjoying WoW again.

Maybe these people quiting are sick of playing anyway. I have PUG'd a few dungeons and there were a few that seemed like they did not even want to be there and they were being forced to play a game. Was nice grouping with their grumpy ass, haha

One big thing that's so bad is all the crap that got nerfed for no reason. And what didn't get nerfed that should have. Bottom line, the devs in charge of balancing classes for PvP play mages. Guess which class is now all but unbeatable by any other class.
